The fact it got one in 2012 is just a yearly improvement. All cars come with updates. Like the 350Z. It came with 287HP then it was bumped up to 298.

I know others have seen otherwise, but this is my experience. I do run pretty hot, even under normal conditions. But I stay about 220-230, so i am in the acceptable range.

I don't race my car on the track, unless I-95 is a track. My engine oil heats up at 20mph and on a summer day it gets pretty bad--245-250 isn't unusual.

230 on the oil gauge isn't in the "normal range" for normal driving. Anyone that tells you that is full of manure. My dealer told me that as well.

I sent an e-mail to Nissan USA and will post their response.
